CNMG160612 T9225 indexable insert for turning – Tungaloy

The CNMG160612 T9225 Tungaloy insert is an ISO-standard, rhombic indexable insert designed for external and internal turning applications, offering a robust universal grade for varying engagement conditions.

• CVD-coated carbide T9225 universal grade
• Rhombic CNMG geometry with cylindrical hole
• 1.2 mm corner radius for tougher cuts
• Double-sided insert for cost-effective edge use

Engineered for sustained productivity in steel turning

The combination of a CVD-coated carbide substrate and the T9225 grade provides a high degree of wear resistance while retaining enough toughness for interrupted or variable cuts. This balance reduces unexpected tool changes and helps maintain consistent cycle times on medium-to-heavy machining operations. The substrate and coating pairing is intended to slow flank wear and protect the cutting edge under fluctuating loads, which translates into longer usable edge life and predictable replacement intervals.

Geometry and clamping that contribute to reliable results

The ISO CNMG 160612 geometry presents a rhombic shape with an 80° included angle and a 0° clearance on the insert face, offering versatile engagement for both external and internal turning. The 1.2 mm corner radius increases edge strength and reliably withstands light interruptions, while the cylindrical hole and standard thickness of 6.35 mm ensure secure clamping in compatible holders. The double-sided nature and chipbreaker design make the insert economical per cutting edge and suitable where consistent chip control is required.

Practical guidance for selection and application

Designed as a universal solution, this indexable insert is suitable for a broad range of steel machining tasks; select the double-sided chipbreaker and the T9225 grade when a combination of toughness and wear resistance is needed. Match holder form, clearance angle, tolerance class and clamping method to the insert dimensions to ensure correct seating and repeatable accuracy. For operations with variable stability or intermittent cuts, the tougher grade and larger corner radius deliver greater process security and fewer interruptions to production. If further compatibility checks are required, technical data and holder recommendations can be provided.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The Tungaloy CNMG160612 T9225 insert is formulated as a universal grade for steel machining, particularly mid-to-heavy applications where toughness and wear resistance are required.

How does the 1.2 mm corner radius affect machining?
A 1.2 mm corner radius increases edge strength and resistance to breakage, making the insert better suited for interrupted cuts and operations with variable engagement.

Is the insert reversible and cost-effective per edge?
Yes, the insert is double-sided, providing two usable cutting edges per side and improving cost efficiency per cutting edge.

What does the CNMG160612 designation indicate?
The CNMG160612 designation specifies the rhombic plate form, size (16 mm inscribed circle), thickness (6.35 mm) and ISO chipbreaker/geometry standard for turning applications.

How should holders be matched to this insert?
Compatibility is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness; confirm holder specifications against the CNMG160612 dimensions to ensure secure seating and repeatable performance.
